Decent side Swansea, probably the pick of the bunch outside the big boys.

Agreed. They gave us a really tough time in the first half at theirs this season and have been much better than Spurs today. Edited 14 December, 2014 by Sour Mash

Swansea look excellent. Great to know we've already been there and won.

[Wiggles31]

We crave a Sigurdsson in our team. I know we have Tadic but someone more central. Bony is also a great player. If we had those two we'd be on the top 3 still easily.

Spurs snatch it ......again.

F*****g hell Spurs have been on a jammy run, ridiculous.

[SaintSteve]

You cannot give Eriksen that much time.. that is the quality we don't have in our midfield.

[Roger]

We have completely imploded. Bloomin spurs going to finish above us now. Not a good two weeks awful. Poch us a lucky manager but that's a nice thing to be.

[Verbal Kint]

That's what can happen when you have players prepared to shoot around the box. Same reason (and from the same player) they beat us at WHL

[Wiggles31]

How they won that. Swansea dominated most of the game.

When was the last team we won a match by scoring a winner in the last 5 or 10 minutes?

 

And I'm not interested in equalising goals to get a draw when the opponents are obviously backs-to-the-wall defending a lead and when we have nothing to lose. That's a profoundly different scenario.

 

I'm talking about being dissatisfied with a draw and having the mental strength to chase, and secure the win. I'm genuinely struggling to think of any.

 

We don't DO late winners.

Swansea away. Penultimate game of last season. In off Rickie's back. 89th minute. Poch the winning manager. Spooky.

yeah, apart from that, don't think we have since returning to the Prem?

Edit: Wanyama vs Swansea to some extent and Pelle against Stoke, although both were of course against 10 men and in the latter example, it was a cup match with ET still to be played.

 

Last season; Swansea away again, although that goal was a fluke. WBA away in the first game of the season I guess.

 

But those really are the only examples (if you even count all of them) in the 2 and 1/2 seasons we've had in the Premiership. Its pretty poor.

We have completely imploded. Bloomin spurs going to finish above us now.

 

Because of one weekend in December where they climbed to two points below us?

who knows really, depends when we can correct our lack of poise in front of goal. Nothing lucky about Eriksen's winner today, looks like a game plan actually, happens too often to be completely random. Spurs look like a fit side with a decent bench, they're using their end of match superiority on occasions, usually away from home.

Le tiss used to be the master of that.

WBA away, 1st game of last season. SRL penalty in the last minute while I was sat in the rain 2 miles away at Edgbaston watching Hampshire get stuffed in the T20 semi-final.
